We have been advised that Hampden Park Level Crossing will be closed to traffic on Sunday 31st October for essential maintenance work.

As a result Services 9 / 9A and 10 / 10A will not be able to cross the railway line and will instead terminate either side of the crossing and then return as a different service.

Normal times will be maintained as much as possible but obviously journeys across Hampden Park will not be feasible.

Customers may walk across the crossing and use their Bus Ticket for onward travel on another service, although connections are not guaranteed.

We apologise for any inconvenience these works may cause.

Due to the rapidly rising cost of fuel the following amendments to our charges will apply from Sunday 31st October 2004.
